Nomad Design Ridgeback 100 LC 100g Sardine Lure – Long Cast, Erratic Action

Overview

The Nomad Design Ridgeback 100 LC is a purpose-built long-cast lure designed for shore and boat anglers who want to reach feeding zones with confidence. Its distinctive shape and original design translate into a dynamic action that draws attention and provokes curious strikes without promising guarantees. Crafted by anglers with decades of on-water insight, this lure combines performance with durability for real-world fishing scenarios.

Design and Construction

The Ridgeback’s angled head initiates an erratic sideways dart with each wind of the reel, while a weighted belly helps you reach greater distances when casting from sand or structure. The through-wire backbone is welded at both ends, reinforcing the lure against tougher fish and demanding retrieves. A high-density HD ABS body provides strength and stability, backed by a triple shield finish to preserve colour and texture through repeated encounters with water and gear.

• Gorilla Through Wire for added strength and reduced risk of separation
• HD ABS construction with thicker walls for lasting durability
• Triple shield resin coats deliver deeper colour and longer-lasting finish

Action, Casting and Versatility

Designed for versatility, the Ridgeback 100 LC excels in both casting and sliding retrieves. The combination of angled head action and a balanced belly helps you cover water fast while maintaining a believable swimming motion that can entice bites from a range of gamefish. This model is sized to cut through surf and reach mid-water feeding zones, making it a strong option for mixed-water conditions on both coasts.

• Ideal for Casting & Sliding: Enjoy versatile fishing with this lure
• Sizes Available: 40g, 60g, 80g, 100g — choose your preferred weight
• Equipped With: BKK Viper Treble Hooks for secure catches

Finish, Durability and Australian Craft

Designed in Australia and built to endure saltwater sessions, the Ridgeback features a robust finish with multiple protective layers. The combination of durable materials and precise engineering means this lure is built to withstand the wear of frequent retrieves while keeping its act together in tough fishing environments. Each element is chosen with real-world use in mind, from the resin-protected paint to the reinforced wiring and hardware.

Who it’s for

Anglers seeking a reliable, weight-forward lure that can handle long casts from shore or boat without sacrificing action will appreciate the Ridgeback 100 LC. While results will vary with conditions, the lure is designed to offer consistent motion and dependable hookups when you’re targeting active schools or suspected feeding zones.
